The overnight session was uneventful for US bond markets with most of the action consisting of Europe catching up to yesterday's afternoon rally in the US.  Once US bond markets officially opened, however, buyers were lined up, making for a quick burst lower in yield (a large contingent of bond market participants begin their trading day at 8:20am when the CME pit opens).

From there, we've seen the same sort of sideways grind at home and abroad.  10yr yields and MBS are both at their best levels since early June.  Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but it would be nice if we were actually breaking BELOW the line laid out in this morning's "day ahead" rather than staying right on top of it.  Here was the chart from this morning:

10:08AM  :  Greece? No. US Bond Markets Rallying for Their Own Reasons

Live Chat Featured Comments
A recap of featured comments from the Live Discussion on the MBS Live Dashboard.
John Tassios  :  "VB 8:18 - Market does not trust ECB - Draghi to fully implement the entire announced QE. Draghi has been all over the place with his speeches lately. Bund at around .80 - 1.00 is the new equilibrium range until markets figure out what ECB QE future purchases will be. same reason why Euro staying a bit higher vs USD. Just my 2 cents."
Matt Hodges  :  "= failed experiment. it will ripple to spain, portugal and ireland wanting reparations"
Sung Kim  :  "people assume that ECB can keep greek default/grexit contained? i think not"
Matthew Graham  :  "sure it is..."
